stuck at home...

We are literally stuck at home.  Brandon thought he was going to be cool tonight and go for a drive to see how bad the roads are.  Well.....he didn't even leave our driveway.  So I guess that answers his question...lol.  I know I won't be attempting to go anywhere for a few days.  This is what we woke up to this morning.  These are the power lines in front of our house. 
I tried to keep the girls as busy as I could today.  We painted and colored this morning. 
Someone thought her face and hands were good places to color...



 After that, I made a fort for the girls to play in.  Aliyah loved it but Kinsley just wanted to climb on top of it.  Only Kinsley would try to climb on a bunch of blankets.  She soon realized that it was not a sturdy surface.
 Brandon's work ended up closing early at 2:00, which meant he got to come home early.  I think our whole town is shut down.  I've heard only 2 gas stations are open.  This has never happened that I can remember.  I just want to know where all the snow is b/c we've only seen ice all day long.  After he got home, I went outside to get some pictures of the ice. 
 I totally wish I had a macro lens.  These pictures would be so much better!


 That's a heckuva lot of ice!!  Surprisingly we haven't lost too many branches and lets hope it stays that way!
